Josh Hokit continues to take advantage of every moment to draw attention at UFC 327. The heavyweight (up to 120,2kg) has the opportunity to make a leap in the category when he faces the fifth-ranked Curtis Blaydes , and, to make even more noise, he danced provocatively next to the ring girls, who didn't join in his antics during the ceremonial weigh-in.
After being called to the stage by Joe Rogan, Hokit broke protocol and walked towards the ring girls positioned behind the scales. Excited, the loudmouth tried to dance with the women, but ended up being ignored, creating yet another embarrassing moment in his collection of extravagant antics.
HEAVYWEIGHT HAVOC! 👊

Josh Hokit had a golden opportunity fall into his lap. The outspoken fighter, despite not yet being ranked in the official heavyweight division (up to 120,2kg), is scheduled to face Curtis Blaydes, currently in the top 5 of the division.
Although not considered an immediate contender for the belt, Blaydes is one of the most established names in the division.

He currently holds the fourth position in the heavyweight rankings.
